6. Semihandmade: Designer Sarah Sherman Samuel and her hubby are big fans of this company. The idea is simple: Provide quality, custom finishes to your existing IKEA products. “The genius part is that at IKEA you can buy the cabinets without the doors and drawer faces, so then by getting those at SemiHandmade, you end up with beautifully crafted and high-quality doors and drawers. It’s like the ultimate IKEA hack,” says Sherman Samuel in an interview with Remodelista.
